Overview
Property Description
This isn’t just a property, it’s a rare legacy estate where breathtaking waterfrontage and beautiful acreage come together on the shores of Lake Travis. The gated entrance welcomes you to the +/-5.4-acre property, a park-like setting defined by towering trees, expansive shoreline, and panoramic lake views stretching across the horizon. The main residence spans 3,706 sq. ft. and has been extensively renovated with timeless, elevated finishes that complement the surrounding landscape. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the open-concept kitchen features a large center island and flows seamlessly into expansive living and dining areas. Upstairs, the private Owner’s retreat offers a true sanctuary with a spacious bedroom, spa-inspired bath with soaking tub and oversized shower and a private patio capturing some of the most stunning views on the property. Two additional flex spaces provide options for a home office, library, fitness room, or guest accommodations (please note, there is not a second bathroom upstairs). Enjoy outdoor activities with direct Lake Travis access, a private boat dock, sparkling pool, walking trails, green spaces and charming garden. Equestrian amenities include a high-quality 2-stall barn with tack room, corral, and riding areas. Two additional residences add versatility including an 817 sq. ft. guest house with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, and a character-filled cabin believed to be tied to Mansfield Dam, featuring pine floors, a full bedroom & bath. The property also offers exceptional functionality with a 3-car garage large enough for an RV or boat, plus an additional 2-car garage/workshop. Unrestricted, gated and supported by three septic systems, public water via WCID #17, and a private well. Seller offers optimized owner financing — own this home with a fraction of the cash to close and a lower monthly payment than a conventional purchase. Seller-carried terms, with the potential for no bank qualification. Ask for full numbers.
